An Unexpected Check.

Just now Spiritualism is exciting great in
terest in some of the Western cities In
Cincinnati especially the subject is being
generally discussed, and much attention is
being paid to alleged Spiritualistic revela-
tions.
Some time ago the MORNING NEWS called
attention to the growth of Spiritualism in
the South. Recently the ghostly faith has
received decided check, and, as singular as
it may seem, the interstate commerce law
is responsible for it. The Southern Spirit
ualists own some valuable property upon
the crest of Lookout mountain, and
it is their custom to hold a
camp meeting there every summer
OF course the meetings would be
failures without ATTRACTIONS" in the shape
of ''trance mediums" naturalization
mediums, "slate-writing mediums, "psych-
ometIic readers" and other humbugs who
thrive upon the childlike faith of people
that believe in Spiritualism. 1t is just here
chat the interstate commerce law interferes
Heretofore the various mediums have
received special rates from the railroads, as
have also the mediums victims Hereafter
such rates will not be obtainable, and the
result is dire dismay in the Spiritualistic
camp, for cheap railroad fares are necessary
to the success of the camp meeting
Spiritualism is one of the most unfortu-
nate of delusions. Some very sincere peo-
pie unquestioningly believe in it, but as a
rule their sincerity is not backed up by good
sense. In other words, people who believe
in Spiritualism are generally cranks. Re
Gently noted mediums have been exposed in
New York and Boston, but the only effect
the exposures had upon Spiritualists was to
excite their anger and to render them all the
more jealous in their belief. Preachers
have shown the foolishness of Spiritualism
time and again, lecturers have pointed out
its utter fallacy, and the news
papers have repeatedly warned those
who believe in it against their designing
leaders, but without the desired effect. 1t
is certainly a matter of interest that after
the failure of alf these efforts the interstate
commerce law should Unexpectedly put a
little check upon the absurd belief. Sena-
tors Cullom and Reagan will doubtless be
surprised to know that their prosaic attempt
to regulate the railroads has caused medi-
ums, SpiritualistS and spirits serious incon-
venience.

October said Prof Harry NJ. Parker, of the
dog and cat circus now performing with Dock
stader's Mnstrels in Brooklyn, land mine is the
only cat ever saw or heard of that performed
before the public
Spot" as the professor has christened his
wonderful feline, is a common, everyday sort
OF cat, with apparently no particular points to
distinguished her from others of her tribe, but
her proud owner says she is the most intelligent
cat in the world. She first leaps from a pedes-
tai to his shoulder at the word of command, and
then makes the same leap through fire hoop.
That's very ordinary trick for dog, said
the professor, but it's big thing for cat. l
had more trouble training her than twenty
dogs. First l got her so she'd run after ball
and fetch it to me, Then | thought might
train her to perform before the public"
How did you teach her to go through the
fire hoop?''
why, l just got double cheese box with a
movable back, put her in it, and logged her
with the back till she had to jump through the
cold hoop that l held in front. After that l
tried her with the fire hoop with the same re-
suit. After she had gone through once there
was no more trouble-that is, not until she
music scared her the first night and the
wouldn't bulge. She made fool Of me for
about three minutes / suppose, but with that

The Necessity for Vigilance.

The occurrence of a few cases OF yellow
fever in Key West is the occasion of consid-
cradle talk about yellow fever in other por-
lions of Florida. There appears to be some
fear that the fever will be spread by refu-
gees from Key West, and by persons coming
from Havana There is probably no occa-
sion for any alarm 1t viii be wise, how
ever, for the health authorities of Florida to
take every precaution against the introduc-
ton of the fever into the main portion OF
the State
The President of the Louisiana Board of
Health, DR.. Holt, of New Orleans, has
written a letter of warning to the Governor
of Florida, which, doubtless, the Governor
will heed 1t will be too late to take pre-
cautionary measures after the disease has
gained Judgement in a locality from which
its spread cannot well be prevented.
1t is probable that no danger is to be APP
| pretended from the drummers who escaped
| from Key West in a schooner after the fever
made its appearance there, and who landed,
| it is said, at Cedar Key, and from there
scattered over the State. The chances are
that they were not exposed to the disease,
| though they should have been qnarantlned
for a reasonable period before being permit
ted to land.
While there is no reason for being alarmed
there is occasion for the adoption of meas
ures which will make the people feel reason
ably secure If it be true, as stated, that a
peddler from Havana died of yellow fever at
Plant City it shows that the quarantine reg
|
be. 1t is more than probable, however, that no
case of yellow fever has occurred at Plant
City, and that what was supposed to be that
disease was fever of another kind. All
sorts of stories get afloat when the people
are little excited, Still, the Florida health
authorities cannot be too vigilant

Austin Corbin and the Unruly Scholars
From the american Grocer

FROM me American grocer.
Mr. Corbn was born in New Hampshire, and
when is years old was offered u high price, for
those days, to teach a school in n district where
there was crowd of boys who had driven three
teachers out of the district. The first day he
opened the school the big boys were all on hand
to give the schoolmaster flogging and drive
him out Austin Corbin, seeing the devil in
their eyes, said to them:
Boys, l came here to teach this school
understand there are some boys here who brag
that they will drive me out of the district. Now,
intend to teach this school through the winter.
and we can get along nicely together, or we can
have fight just as You choose l intend to be
obeyed during school hours. Out Of school
am a boy with you"
His manly, determined and pleasant course
brought all of the boys in sympathy with him
except one big, hullIing fellow lie behaved
fairly well until recess, but when the boys were
called in he stayed out. Austin, seeing at once
he must conquer him, told him TO come up to
the desk and give his reasons for not coming in
when called He made frivolous excuse in an
impudent manner. Corbin, with sudden trip
and push landed him on the floor, held him
down, gave him severe fiogging, which lasted
until he asked his pardon After that time the
boy was the best in the school, because afraid
of the teacher, while the school became the
most orderly of any in the county.

a GLANCE AT THE ANARCHISTS.
Nina Van zandt and Mrs. Parsons
Make Daily Visits to the Jail.
From, the Chicago Ne1cs.

Make Daily Visits to the Jail.
From, the Chicago Ne,cs.
Twelve months of close confinement have told
visibly on the condemned Anarchists in the
county jail. Although they profess good spirits
and express strong faith in the granting of a
new trial by the Supreme Court it is evident
that the long and continued suspense under
which they are laboling is wearing heavily upon
them. They have grown weary posing as OBJ
jects of curiosity before the public gaze aud
rarely appear in the corridor when strangers
are present.
At 10 O'Clock eoch morning Nina Van Zandt
enters the jail and drawing chair up to the
iron grating, sits down to bill and coo with her
imprisoned lover. She is the only one of the
friends of the condemned men who visit the
Jail in the morning, all of the others deferring
their calls until late in the afternoon.
Mrs. Parsons is very devoted, and when in the
city it is rarelysthat she fails to pass an hour
each day with her husband, During these in
terviews the husband and wife draw their chairs
up on either side of the iron bars and converse
in subdued tones. When the hour has expired
her little finger through the bars, and shaking
| the extended finger of her husband departs
without uttering word to the keepers or the
friends of the other prisoners.
To the casual observer Parsons, perhaps, OF
all the prisoners betrays the least apparent anx-
iety, To those who know him, however, it is
plain that this seeming indifference is assumed,
and that in reality he feels his predicament as
keenly as any. Fielding and Engel have lost con
siderable flesh and have grown sour and morose
with their confinement. Fischer and Lingg have
not fallen away so much in flesh, but they look
| pale and dhpirited, and their walk has lost
| much of its spring and vigor. Oscar Neebe, not
outstanding his recent bereavement, has
| changed but little in appearance and save
| slight pallor of countenance looks as well as
when he first entered the Jail. August Spies has
| lost his old-time spirit and spends much OF his
| time moving about the cell. Hisappetite is good,
however, and he is always ready to partake Of
| the delicacies which are daily presented him by
| the hand of his betrOthed

How deep he dived in fairy lore

They commonly bestowed of yore-
The love Of books, the golden key
That opens the enchanted door;

And there is all Aladdins store;
The books l loved, love them still
Take all but leave my books to mel
Those heavy creels of old we love
We fill not now, nor wonder free,
Nor wear the heart that once we wore.

His waters from the Muses. hill;
Though something's gone from streal

The books loved love them still.

A stability dressed man recently bought a
baby carriage at a sale of unclaimed goods
in Chicago. He was one of the strikers, and
he bought tho carriage as the sole reminder
of the happy home he had before he was
ordered to quit work. His wife and baby
died in a hospital while he was out of work,
and his goods were seized to pay his debts
He pushed the carriage along the street and
wept as he recalled the baby face that had
once nestled in its frayed and faded finery.

will either resign or be deposed when the

and ally himself with one on the other Of

love affair Daniel Pfenning, a handsome
youth Of is, fell in love With girl of 10
years, and wooed and won her. The elder
Pfenning, hearing of the engagement, or
dered his son never to see the girl again.

He went to his brother-in-law's house and
related what had occurred, adding: II will
either have that girl or die" He then went
out, followed by his brother-in-law, who
feared he meant mischief. Owing to the
darkness, Pfenning escaped his pursuer and
ran to dock, where he was caught by a
policeman as he was about to plunge into
the water When arrested, Pfenning first
pleaded, and then struggled to get away
that he might end his sufferings Event
ually he was delivered to his friends, who
promised to take care of him.
